Telekinesis
Spell, Mysticism, level 2
Moves objects with the mind, which can be hurled for damage after building speed; it cannot act on living beings directly.
From the book
The caster moves physical objects with psychic energy, up to 10 lbs. per level of ability at a range of 10 ft. per level. Objects can travel up and down or side to side, picking up speed as they keep going one way; they need at least 20 ft. of travel to go fast enough to hurt anyone as missiles. A 10 lb. projectile does 1-6 points of damage, plus 1 point for every further 10 lbs.
The power cannot seize living beings directly, but it works on any inanimate thing, such as rugs, chairs or weapons.

A scene
The bandit bursting into the caravan tent in Turan has a knife and a grin, and the mystic Farrukh is sitting on a cushion across the tent with a copper cooking pot beside the fire. He does not stand up. The pot lifts off the ground, swings back behind him to gather speed, and flies the length of the tent to crack into the bandit's forehead with a sound like a temple gong. The man sits down hard. Farrukh sighs, lets the pot settle back by the fire, and reaches for his tea.
